Joe Bacal Captures another Top
Finish at the Baja 500
Finishing Streak Remains Unbroken Despite
Rough Conditions
ENSENADA, Mexico, June 7, 2010 – For the sixth time in six races, Joe Bacal and his Cancer Treatment Centers of America Lexus LX 570 completed their off-road racing mission, this time taking a hard-earned second place in the Stock Full class on a weather and earthquake-ravaged course in the 42nd Annual Tecate SCORE Baja 500 on Sunday morning.
“The course was extremely rough—worse than the (Baja) 1000,” said Bacal after driving more than 20 hours without relief. “A lot of racers got stuck on the course in front of us and it really slowed us down for a while.” <Read More>
The stranded vehicles created a bottleneck on parts of the course with only one way through, creating an unusual situation for Bacal and co-driver Bob Ditner. “We freed at least five rigs on the course with our tow strap,” recalled Bacal. “We really had no choice. It was faster to pull them out than wait for them to dig themselves out, but we still lost a lot of time in the process.”
